This mod changes the appearance of a spinning prop. The sim does a good job of making the spinning prop look like it would when viewed with a video or film camera. Unfortunately, this (stroboscopic effect) is not what a real prop looks like when viewed with human eyes. IRL it looks like a slightly gray transparent disc and you cannot see motion (you can barely see anything at all). This mod makes it look real (from front and back).
No impact on frame rate (that I can tell). It's just a replacement for the original spinning prop textures. The still and slow prop textures are unchanged, so you still see a normal stationary prop at shutduwn.
Just copy the folder "VRPropMod-MULTIPASS" into your comminity folder. To prevent any Microsobo weirdness, it's recommended to remove any of my (redundant) individual prop mods if you have any. This new one contains the same data, but packed into one community subfolder.
I'll update this pack to new versions as I add modified props for more planes. See the chalgelog for details on added planes.
Review of this mod: Link
Note: The latest update to OpenXR Runtime v113.2304.14003 has fixed a long-running bug with reprojection responding to transparent textures. This makes prop textures work MUCH better by default. Make sure you have the update (through the MS Store). I'll still do these prop mods where I can, because, while the MR wobbles are better, I prefer to see a circular disc like in real life.
Note: I've also done the H145, but because of the way the rotor animation is done, I cannot get it to show as a uniform disc. I made it transparent completely, which eliminates the issues in VR. Since this will be controversial, A separate mod was made and uploaded.

i love this mod! i dont use VR but i still think it is essential to have either way. i do have a simple request though, it doesnt seem to work right for the F-G1 Corsair. its as if there is no prop at all. i hope to see this updated soon.

In my opinion this is the key addon for VR users, it's simply fantastic, even with the latest improvements to the latest OpenXR Runtime (v113.2304.14003).
My small request is your mod implemented for the new ORBX Blackwing BW 635RG.
Thanks again for great mod!

This is an awesome addon!
I did notice that in the C152 variants I can see the blades flickering around, and not a round transparent disc like in other planes. Does anyone else see this? Is this expected? I think this creates extra stutters in the c152 I dont see in other planes

Awesome work! However, the AN-2 prop is very flickery :/
Not smooth at all and this constant flicker makes it very annoying to fly with it in VR.
Most of the other props are fine, but the AN-2 (I have the latest version of the AN-2 and your mod) is still very "flickery".
Any chance you could improve that please? Making it more smooth and less of a stroboscopic effect?

I have already left a comment here before (thank you very much). Now I am somewhat confused. Your An-2 mod doesn't work. At first I thought that only with third-party liveries, but as it turned out, with the Microsoft livery, the result is the same. After looking at the contents of your mod, I found that there is a typo - instead of Microsoft in the file name Mircosoft. Unfortunately, even rearranging the letters in the correct order, I did not get the desired picture of the rotation of the propeller. What do you advise? Will there be fixes for your mod?

Great catch. Typo fixed. had to fix the directory name and update the layout.json so it would be replaced by the game. Updated 27.1
Thanks.

SR22: I can get this to work just fine with the stock Asobo livery. If I use the Carbon Collection liveries, it doesn't work. Is there an obvious fix I'm missing? Otherwise I love this

That livery pack might have their own replacement prop disks. Not much I can do i the dev makes his own and they're back to the old type.

It's just a detail but a very important one. There are aircraft that I quit only because I could not stand the looks of the propeller. It's worth a donation!

Can you help with Cowen's helicopters? The animation is a bit like seeing the blades through the 80's video cameras.

It's just wonderful that there is a person who helps us see the world as real (and not as usual on the screens)! I would like the latest MSFS novelties - Antonov-2 (An-2) and something else to be added to the list ...
Это просто замечательно, что есть человек, который помогает нам видеть мир реальным (а не как обычно на экранах)! Хотелось бы, чтобы в список были добавлены последние новинки MSFS - Antonov-2 (An-2) и что-то там еще...
